Question:

A person pushes a crate on a frictionless surface with a force of 100. lbf. The crate accelerates at a rate of 3.0 feet per second2. What is the mass of the crate in lbm? (A: 1.07 × 103 lbm)


Assume that on the surface of the Earth, g = 9.81 m/s2 = 32.2 ft/s2 (i.e., each to three significant figures). Make sure you are reporting the solution to the proper number of significant figures.
